Again Maintenance Control System

Introduction

The Again Maintenance Control system has been designed to provide a remote or onsite secure building maintenance administration system for both Again enabled and non enabled buildings.

With Again enabled buildings ( See Again Access Control System ), building supervisors can remotely issue work orders, enable access to the work on particular days at designated times, without the need to physically issues keys.

When advanced wall kiosks are installed, workers can check in using the Again card, download the access permissions. As an additional security feature, the cardholder's picture can be taken and stored, monitoring who actually is working in the building.

Where building are not Again enabled, work instructions can be still be issued remotely, with the information being downloaded on to the contractors individual cards, these are then handed in to building security and verified before handing keys out.

Basic Concept

The control of who enters and leave buildings is an increasing issue in terms of security and safety. The competency of those doing the work is also an issue.

The idea behind the maintenance control system is that all individual contractors are registered on the system, ( the amount of detail can be as little as name , address, employer, D.O.B, contact numbers, Photo ID, extending to certificates of competency , qualification details, insurance details )

When issue work orders, the system can monitor who is doing the work, and when used in Again enabled buildings, the system can automatically issue access permissions to give the contractor access to the particular job , at a particular time, without the need for collecting and returning keys.

Using the System

The system is run using a central webserver, staff assigning work log on through a password protected website and issue work orders. If the building is Again enabled, they also set access permissions to the work order. An email is then sent to the contractor notifying him that there is a job to do. The contractor ( who has signed up to the scheme so has the relevant software and card readers ) download the information onto a Maintenance control card selecting the individual workers details as well. ( including photo ID ).

When turning up and the site or building, the card is presented to security and read, ( where wall kiosks are installed, the contractor checks in us the wall kiosk, and has their picture taken for additional security.

As the individual security office pc /kiosks are linked to the central system, verification is quick and accurate. If the contractor is out of time or late, then security can change the access permissions locally, with the changes being logged.

Where contractors charge on a time basis, the system can help you monitor time actually worked.
